FAQ
Who is Lunera for?
Ambitious founders at the idea & pre‑seed stage. Come with a problem worth solving, a sharp insight, and the drive to test quickly - perfect deck optional.
Do I need traction or a product to apply?
No. Idea‑stage founders are welcome. We look for clear insight, a believable wedge, and a plan to validate fast. If you have a prototype or early users, great - but it’s not required.
What sectors do you invest in?
We’re sector‑flexible and back founders where our help matters most - early GTM design, validation loops, and customer development. If your path to traction is testable, we want to see it.
What happens if you don’t invest?
Founders still leave with specific feedback, targeted intros (where appropriate), and access to community resources so you can keep moving. Every founder gets value—invested or not.
What’s the application process?
Apply → Interview → Decision → Community. Short form to start (minutes, not hours). One or two conversations to pressure‑test the insight and plan. We move fast and keep you informed throughout.
How quickly do you decide?
We aim for fast, transparent turnaround. If we need more signal, we’ll tell you exactly what experiment or customer conversation would unlock a decision.
